Nonlinear Eigenproblem
In mathematics, a nonlinear eigenproblem, sometimes nonlinear eigenvalue problem, is a generalization of the (ordinary) eigenvalue problem to equations that depend nonlinearly on the eigenvalue. Specifically, it refers to equations of the form : M (\lambda) x = 0 , where x\neq0 is a vector, and ''M'' is a matrix-valued function of the number \lambda. The number \lambda is known as the (nonlinear) eigenvalue, the vector x as the (nonlinear) eigenvector, and (\lambda,x) as the eigenpair. The matrix M (\lambda) is singular at an eigenvalue \lambda. Definition In the discipline of numerical linear algebra the following definition is typically used. Let \Omega \subseteq \Complex, and let M : \Omega \rightarrow \Complex^ be a function that maps scalars to matrices. A scalar \lambda \in \Complex is called an ''eigenvalue'', and a nonzero vector x \in \Complex^n is called a ''right eigevector'' if M (\lambda) x = 0. Moreover, a nonzero vector y \in \Complex^n is called a ''left eig ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting points of t ...

Quadratic Eigenvalue Problem
In mathematics, the quadratic eigenvalue problemF. Tisseur and K. Meerbergen, The quadratic eigenvalue problem, SIAM Rev., 43 (2001), pp. 235–286. (QEP), is to find scalar eigenvalues \lambda, left eigenvectors y and right eigenvectors x such that : Q(\lambda)x = 0 ~ \text ~ y^\ast Q(\lambda) = 0, where Q(\lambda)=\lambda^2 A_2 + \lambda A_1 + A_0, with matrix coefficients A_2, \, A_1, A_0 \in \mathbb^ and we require that A_2\,\neq 0, (so that we have a nonzero leading coefficient). There are 2n eigenvalues that may be ''infinite'' or finite, and possibly zero. This is a special case of a nonlinear eigenproblem. Q(\lambda) is also known as a quadratic polynomial matrix. Applications A QEP can result in part of the dynamic analysis of structures discretized by the finite element method. In this case the quadratic, Q(\lambda) has the form Q(\lambda)=\lambda^2 M + \lambda C + K, where M is the mass matrix, C is the damping matrix and K is the stiffness matrix. Other applicatio ...

Gene H
In biology, the word gene (from , ; "...Wilhelm Johannsen coined the word gene to describe the Mendelian units of heredity..." meaning ''generation'' or ''birth'' or ''gender'') can have several different meanings. The Mendelian gene is a basic unit of heredity and the molecular gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA that is transcribed to produce a functional RNA. There are two types of molecular genes: protein-coding genes and noncoding genes. During gene expression, the DNA is first copied into RNA. The RNA can be directly functional or be the intermediate template for a protein that performs a function. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits. These genes make up different DNA sequences called genotypes. Genotypes along with environmental and developmental factors determine what the phenotypes will be. Most biological traits are under the influence of polygenes (many different genes) as well as gen ...

Hermitian Matrix
In mathematics, a Hermitian matrix (or self-adjoint matrix) is a complex square matrix that is equal to its own conjugate transpose—that is, the element in the -th row and -th column is equal to the complex conjugate of the element in the -th row and -th column, for all indices and : or in matrix form: A \text \quad \iff \quad A = \overline . Hermitian matrices can be understood as the complex extension of real symmetric matrices. If the conjugate transpose of a matrix A is denoted by A^\mathsf, then the Hermitian property can be written concisely as Hermitian matrices are named after Charles Hermite, who demonstrated in 1855 that matrices of this form share a property with real symmetric matrices of always having real eigenvalues. Other, equivalent notations in common use are A^\mathsf = A^\dagger = A^\ast, although note that in quantum mechanics, A^\ast typically means the complex conjugate only, and not the conjugate transpose. Alternative characterizations H ...

Julia (programming Language)
Julia is a high-level, dynamic programming language. Its features are well suited for numerical analysis and computational science. Distinctive aspects of Julia's design include a type system with parametric polymorphism in a dynamic programming language; with multiple dispatch as its core programming paradigm. Julia supports concurrent, (composable) parallel and distributed computing (with or without using MPI or the built-in corresponding to "OpenMP-style" threads), and direct calling of C and Fortran libraries without glue code. Julia uses a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that is referred to as "just- ahead-of-time" (JAOT) in the Julia community, as Julia compiles all code (by default) to machine code before running it. Julia is garbage-collected, uses eager evaluation, and includes efficient libraries for floating-point calculations, linear algebra, random number generation, and regular expression matching. Many libraries are available, including some (e.g., for fas ...

SLEPc
SLEPc is a software library for the parallel computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of large, sparse matrices. It can be seen as a module of PETSc that provides solvers for different types of eigenproblems, including linear (standard and generalized) and nonlinear ( quadratic, polynomial and general), as well as the SVD. Recent versions also include support for matrix functions. It uses the MPI standard for parallelization. Both real and complex arithmetic are supported, with single, double and quadruple precision. When using SLEPc, the application programmer can use any of the PETSc's data structures and solvers. Other PETSc features are incorporated into SLEPc as well, such as command-line option setting, automatic profiling, error checking, portability to virtually all computing platforms, etc. Components EPS provides iterative algorithms for linear eigenvalue problems. * Krylov methods such as Krylov-Schur, Arnoldi and Lanczos. * Davidson methods such as Generalized ...

Zero Of A Function
In mathematics, a zero (also sometimes called a root) of a real-, complex-, or generally vector-valued function f, is a member x of the domain of f such that f(x) ''vanishes'' at x; that is, the function f attains the value of 0 at x, or equivalently, x is the solution to the equation f(x) = 0. A "zero" of a function is thus an input value that produces an output of 0. A root of a polynomial is a zero of the corresponding polynomial function. The fundamental theorem of algebra shows that any non-zero polynomial has a number of roots at most equal to its degree, and that the number of roots and the degree are equal when one considers the complex roots (or more generally, the roots in an algebraically closed extension) counted with their multiplicities. For example, the polynomial f of degree two, defined by f(x)=x^2-5x+6 has the two roots (or zeros) that are 2 and 3. f(2)=2^2-5\times 2+6= 0\textf(3)=3^2-5\times 3+6=0. If the function maps real numbers to real numbers, th ...
